【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、光学的異方性の溶融相を形成し得る熱可塑性ポリマー(以下、これを熱可塑性液晶ポリマーと略称することがある)からなるフィルム(以下、これを熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムと略称することがある)を絶縁層に用いた回路基板とその製造方法に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、回路基板の基材としては、ガラス補強エポキシ(以下、エポキシ系と略す)基材が用いられてきたが、近年では、高集積回路化、高周波数伝送化、薄膜化などの要求に対応するため、ビスマレイミド−トリアジン系のガラス補強(以下、BT系と略す)基材が用いられている。なお、回路基板およびその製造方法としては、後述するように種々提案されている(例えば、特許文献1〜5)。

【発明が解決しようとする課題】
近年、電気電子機器分野においては、SMT(表面実装技術)が普及し、多くの電気電子機器製品に使用されている。これにより電子回路基板の実装密度が飛躍的に向上し、従来では実現できなかったような軽薄短小化が達成されている。それに伴い、電子回路基板には、同一回路基板内にICチップ、抵抗器、コンデンサなどの多種類の実装品が実装されるようになってきている。
しかし、従来使用されている、エポキシ系の基材やBT系基材の絶縁材料は、半導体素子や抵抗素子などの実装品を実装するとき、基材を構成する樹脂と同じ熱膨張係数を有する実装品の場合には、位置ズレが少なく、熱寸法信頼性は良好であるが、基材を構成する樹脂とは異なる熱膨張係数を有する実装品の場合には熱寸法信頼性が悪化する。
【0005】
本発明は、上記した従来技術に鑑みてなされたものであって、回路基板の同一表面上に寸法変化率が異なる領域が形成されており、実装時の熱寸法信頼性に優れた回路基板を提供することを課題とする。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明によれば、上記課題は、光学的異方性の溶融相を形成し得る熱可塑性ポリマーからなるフィルムを絶縁層に用いた回路基板であって、同一回路基板内に実装品が設けられる複数の領域を有し、この実装品が設けられる少なくとも1つの領域の寸法変化率が、(1)回路基板の他の部分とは相違し、かつ(2)該領域に実装される実装品の寸法変化率との差が0.1%以下となるように、該領域を局所的に熱処理して調整されてなる回路基板を提供することによって解決される。
【0007】
本発明者らはこれまで、熱可塑性液晶ポリマーからなるフィルムおよび該フィルムを使用してなる回路基板について研究を重ねてきた。その結果、熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムは、熱処理を施すことによってその熱膨張係数を制御できることを見出している。かような性質に着目した結果、熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムを回路基板の絶縁層として用い、金属箔との積層体とした後、実装品が設けられる領域を局所的に熱処理して、その領域における熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムの寸法変化率を所望の値に調整することによって、上記した要求に応える回路基板を容易に製造できることを見出し、さらに検討した結果、本発明を完成させた。
【0008】
なお、各種実装品を回路基板上に実装する際に、回路基板の実装部のみを加熱することは、例えば、特開平10−335391号公報、特開2000−252327号公報、特開2001−68847号公報、特開2001−111207号公報(特許文献1〜4)などに記載されている。これらの文献に記載された局所的な加熱処理は、実装工程の過程で実施されるものであり、実装品に対応して異なる熱膨張係数を有する領域が設けられた回路基板を、実装工程に先立って製造することを意図したものではない。さらに、上記した各文献には、回路基板自体の素材に関しては全く記載されていない。
【0009】
また、熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムを使用した回路基板に関して、特開平10−157010号公報(特許文献5)が知られている。同公報は、LSIチップを直接実装する際の熱膨張による位置ズレが小さく、表面実装部品の熱膨張係数に応じた金属張積層体を提供することを目的としたものであり、熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムと金属箔とからなる積層体を、その表面への実装部品の装着前に熱処理することによって、該積層体を構成するフィルムの熱膨張係数を実装部品のそれと実質的に同じにすることからなる積層体の熱処理方法を開示する。しかし、この公報に記載された方法では、熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムと金属箔とからなる積層体を加熱することが開示されているのみであり、回路基板全体にわたって熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムの熱膨張係数を実装部品のそれと実質的に同じにすることはできるが、回路基板の同一表面上で異なる熱膨張係数の領域を有するものとすることはできない。
【0010】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明に使用される熱可塑性液晶ポリマーは特に限定されるものではないが、その具体例として、以下に例示する(1)から(4)に分類される化合物およびその誘導体から導かれる公知のサーモトロピック液晶ポリエステルおよびサーモトロピック液晶ポリエステルアミドを挙げることができる。

【0021】
また、本発明に使用される熱可塑性液晶ポリマーとしては、耐熱性および加工性の点で、約200〜約400℃の範囲内、とりわけ約250〜約350℃の範囲内に融点を有するものが好ましい。
【0022】
本発明において絶縁層を構成する熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムは、熱可塑性液晶ポリマーを押出成形して得られる。任意の押出成形法がこの目的のために使用されるが、周知のTダイ製膜法、ラミネート体延伸法、インフレーション法等が工業的に有利である。特に、ラミネート体延伸法やインフレーション法では、フィルムの機械軸方向(以下、MD方向と略す)だけでなく、これと直交する方向(以下、TD方向と略す)にも応力が加えられるため、MD方向とTD方向との間における機械的性質および熱的性質のバランスのとれたフィルムを得ることができるので、より好適に用いることができる。
【0023】
熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムは、加熱時の反りがないなどの形態安定性が必要とされる場合には、分子配向度SORが1.3以下であることが望ましい。特に、SORが1.3以下の液晶ポリマーフィルムは、MD方向とTD方向との間における機械的性質および熱的性質のバランスが良好であって、フィルムが等方的性質を有している。このため、フィルムの向き(縦横方向)に拘束されることなく、回路の設計ができ、設計自由度が大きくなり、より実用性が高い。また、加熱時の反りを無くす必要がある精密な易放熱性回路基板に使用する場合には、0.9≦SOR≦1.03であることが望ましい。
【0024】
ここで、分子配向度SOR(Segment Orientation Ratio)とは、分子配向の度合いを与える指標をいい、従来のMOR(Molecular Orientation Ratio)とは異なり、物体の厚さを考慮した値である。上記の分子配向度SORの算出方法について、以下に説明する。
まず、周知のマイクロ波分子配向度測定機において、熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムを、マイクロ波の進行方向にフィルム面が垂直になるように、マイクロ波共振導波管中に挿入し、該フィルムを透過したマイクロ波の電場強度(マイクロ波透過強度)が測定される。そして、この測定値に基づいて、次式により、m値(屈折率と称する)が算出される。
m=(Zo/△z) × [1−νmax/νo]
ただし、 Zoは装置定数、△z は物体の平均厚、νmaxはマイクロ波の振動数を変化させたとき、最大のマイクロ波透過強度を与える振動数、νoは平均厚ゼロのとき(すなわち物体がないとき)の最大マイクロ波透過強度を与える振動数である。
次に、マイクロ波の振動方向に対する物体の回転角が0°のとき、つまり、マイクロ波の振動方向と、物体の分子が最もよく配向されている方向であって、最小マイクロ波透過強度を与える方向とが合致しているときのm値をm0、回転角が90°のときのm値をm90として、分子配向度SORはm0/ m90により算出される。
【0025】
本発明の熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムは、任意の厚みのものでよく、1mm以下の板状またはシート状のものをも包含するが、膜厚が10〜150μmの範囲内にあるものが好ましく、膜厚が15〜75μmの範囲内にあるものがより好ましい。フィルムの厚さが薄過ぎる場合には、フィルムの剛性や強度が小さくなることから、膜厚が10〜150μmの範囲のフィルムを積層させて任意の厚みとすることが適当である。
【0026】
本発明の回路基板は、上記した熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムと、金属箔などの支持体とから構成される。また、熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムの表面に金属からなる層を形成することによって回路基板を構成することもできる。
金属箔は、通常、熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムの片面に積層される。また、金属からなる層は、熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムの全面を覆うものであってもよいし、回路パターンに対応した形状であってもよい。後者の場合、金属からなる層は、熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムの両面に設けられてもよい。
金属箔または金属層を構成する金属としては、電気的接続に使用されるような金属が好適であり、例えば、銅、金、銀、ニッケル、アルミニウムなどが挙げられる。
【0027】
金属箔として銅箔を使用する場合、圧延法、電気分解法などによって製造される何れのものを使用してもよい。表面が平滑な圧延銅箔を使用する場合、その製造工程における圧延工程において通称オイルピットと呼ばれる細かい凹凸( JIS B 0601に規定された中心線平均粗さRaとして、0.02〜0.3μm)が存在することが好ましい。
【0028】
金属箔には、通常銅箔に対して施される酸洗浄などの化学的処理を施したり、ヒンダードフェノール系の酸化防止剤あるいはトリアゾール系の防錆剤、塩化第一錫水溶液に代表される還元剤などが本発明の効果を損なわない範囲内で塗布されていてもよい。金属箔の厚さは、10〜100μmの範囲内が好ましく、10〜35μmの範囲内がより好ましい。
【0029】
金属箔と熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムとの積層は、例えば真空熱プレス装置や加熱ロール積層設備等を使用した熱圧着などの公知の方法によって実施することができる。
また、熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムの表面に金属層を形成する場合、蒸着、スパッタリング、めっきなどの公知の方法を利用することができる。金属からなる層が熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムの全面を覆うものである場合には、上記した金属箔を熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムに熱圧着する方法も採用できる。金属層の厚さとしては特に制限はないが、10〜100μmの範囲内が好ましく、10〜35μmの範囲内がより好ましい。
【0030】
本発明の回路基板には、スルーホールが形成されていてもよい。スルーホールの形成は、公知の方法に従って実施することができ、ドリルによる加工法や、炭酸ガスレーザー、YAGレーザー、エキシマレーザーなどのレーザーによる加工法などを採用することができる。スルーホール形成時の発熱で、孔内に付着した熱可塑性液晶ポリマーの切削クズ(スミヤ)は、汎用の市販薬剤を用いて、化学的に溶解除去することが好ましい。前記スルーホールにめっきを施す場合は、従来周知の方法を採用することができる。
【0031】
本発明の回路基板では、実装品が設けられる1つ以上の領域のうち、少なくとも1つの領域を局所的に熱処理して、この領域の寸法変化率を該領域に実装される実装品の寸法変化率との差が0.1%以下となるように調整する。これにより、実装品を実装する際に位置ズレが小さく、熱寸法信頼性が高められた回路基板が得られる。
【0032】
熱処理の温度としては、回路基板における熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムの寸法変化率が実装部品の寸法変化率よりも大きい場合には、該フィルムの融点よりも140℃低い温度から該融点までの温度範囲を選択することができる。また、回路基板における熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムの寸法変化率が実装部品の寸法変化率よりも小さい場合には、該フィルムの融点から融点よりも20℃高い温度までの温度範囲を選択することができる。熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムの寸法変化率は熱処理時間によっても調整することができる。
また、熱処理の手段としては、例えば、赤外線照射装置、遠赤外線照射装置、電子線照射装置、熱風吹き付け装置などが使用される。
【0033】
前記実装品が設けられる領域(以下、実装領域と略称することがある)における熱膨張係数は、−20×10-6〜40×10-6cm/cm/℃の範囲に調整されていることが好ましい。また、前記実装品が設けられる1つ以上の領域における熱膨張係数は、該領域に実装される実装品の熱膨張係数との差が3×10-6cm/cm/℃以下となるように調整されていることがより好ましい。すなわち、実装品が実装される領域の熱膨張係数を、実装品の熱膨張係数P×10-6cm/cm/℃に対して、(P−3)×10-6cm/cm/℃〜(P+3)×10-6cm/cm/℃の範囲に調整することが好ましい。
【0034】
本発明の回路基板には実装領域が少なくとも1つ形成される。このような実装領域には、例えば、コンデンサと抵抗器のように寸法変化率が異なる複数種の実装品を実装することができる。その場合、実装される実装品の寸法変化率は似通った範囲にあることが好ましい。また、本発明の回路基板には2つまたはそれ以上の実装領域を形成することも可能である。その場合、各実装領域の寸法変化率は、同一であってもよいし、異なっていてもよい。また、各実装領域の熱膨張係数は、同一であってもよいし、異なっていてもよい。
【0035】
本発明の回路基板は、複数の実装領域を形成し、各実装領域毎に1種類の実装品を実装するように構成することもできる。その場合、各実装領域の寸法変化率を、該実装領域に実装される実装品に合わせて調整することが可能である。例えば、第1の実装品が実装される領域を実装領域1、第1の実装品とは別種の第2の実装品が実装される領域を実装領域2、以下、第nの実装品が実装される領域を実装領域n(n≧3)とした場合に、各実装領域1、2およびnの各寸法変化率と、それぞれの実装領域に実装される実装品の寸法変化率との差が0.1%以下となるように調整されていることが好ましい。また、各実装領域1、2およびnの各熱膨張係数は、−20×10-6〜40×10-6cm/cm/℃の範囲に調整されていることが好ましく、それぞれの実装領域に実装される実装品の熱膨張係数との差が3×10-6cm/cm/℃以下となるように調整されていることがより好ましい。
【0036】
図1は、本発明の一実施形態にかかる複数の実装品が実装された回路基板の構成図を示す。同図の実施形態では、熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムを絶縁層に用いた回路基板1に3つの実装領域2〜4が設けられ、このうち領域2にはICチップ5や半導体6が実装され、領域3にはコンデンサ7や抵抗8が実装され、領域4にはコネクタ9が接続されている。そして、回路基板1は、絶縁層からなる基材の上に、上記の実装品を互いに電気的に接続する配線パターン(図示せず)が形成されている。
【0037】
【実施例】
以下、実施例により本発明を詳細に説明するが、本発明はこれらの実施例により何ら限定されるものではない。なお、融点および熱膨張係数、並びに熱寸法信頼性は、以下の方法により測定した。
・ 融点および熱膨張係数
熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムの融点は、示差走査熱量計を用いて、20℃/分の速度で昇温し完全に溶融させた後、50℃/分の速度で50℃まで急冷し、再び20℃/分の速度で昇温した時に現れる吸熱ピークの位置で測定した。
また、熱可塑性液晶ポリマーフィルムの熱膨張係数は、熱機械分析装置(TMA)を用い、幅5mm、長さ20mmのフィルムの両端に1gの引張荷重をかけ、5℃/分の速度で200℃まで昇温後、20℃/分の速度で冷却し、再び5℃/分の速度で昇温した時の30℃と150℃の間の長さの変化に基づいて算出した。
【0038】
(2)熱寸法信頼性
幅200mm、長さ200mmの積層体(回路基板)表面の格子状銅箔パターン(線幅:2mm、ピッチ:5mm)上に、シリコンウェハー(熱膨張係数:2×10−6cm/cm/℃)上に格子状のハンダボール(線幅:2mm、ピッチ:5mm)が設けられた素子を、ハンダボールが格子状の銅箔パターンと同じ位置になるように室温下に載せ、これを230℃の赤外線炉中で20秒間加熱した。この加熱を10回繰返した後の積層体の格子状銅箔パターンとシリコンウェハー上のハンダボールとの位置ズレ(銅箔パターンの線幅を基準とする)を、透過型電子顕微鏡(TEM)観察によって測定した。
【0039】
参考例1
p−ヒドロキシ安息香酸と6−ヒドロキシ−2−ナフトエ酸の共重合物で、融点が280℃である熱可塑性液晶ポリマーを吐出量20kg/時で溶融押出し、横延伸倍率4.77倍、縦延伸倍率2.09倍の条件でインフレーション製膜した。平均膜厚が50μm、膜厚分布が±7%、分子配向度SORが1.05のフィルムを得た。このフィルムの融点は280℃、熱膨張係数は−6×10-6cm/cm/℃であった。
【0040】

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is a film comprising a thermoplastic polymer capable of forming an optically anisotropic melt phase (hereinafter sometimes abbreviated as a thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer) (hereinafter abbreviated as a thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer film). The present invention relates to a circuit board using an insulating layer as an insulating layer and a manufacturing method thereof.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, glass-reinforced epoxy (hereinafter abbreviated as epoxy) base material has been used as the base material for circuit boards, but in recent years, it has responded to demands for higher integrated circuits, higher frequency transmission, and thinner films. Therefore, a bismaleimide-triazine glass reinforced (hereinafter abbreviated as BT) base material is used. Various circuit boards and manufacturing methods thereof have been proposed as described later (for example, Patent Documents 1 to 5).

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-157010 [0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In recent years, in the field of electrical and electronic equipment, SMT (surface mounting technology) has become widespread and used in many electrical and electronic equipment products. As a result, the mounting density of the electronic circuit board has been drastically improved, and lightness, thinness and miniaturization that could not be realized in the past have been achieved. Accordingly, various types of mounted products such as an IC chip, a resistor, and a capacitor are mounted on the electronic circuit board in the same circuit board.
However, conventionally used insulating materials for epoxy base materials and BT base materials have the same thermal expansion coefficient as the resin constituting the base material when mounting mounted products such as semiconductor elements and resistance elements. In the case of a mounted product, the positional deviation is small and the thermal dimensional reliability is good, but in the case of a mounted product having a thermal expansion coefficient different from that of the resin constituting the base material, the thermal dimensional reliability is deteriorated.
[0005]
The present invention has been made in view of the above-described prior art, and a circuit board having excellent dimensional reliability at the time of mounting, wherein regions having different dimensional change rates are formed on the same surface of the circuit board. The issue is to provide.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
According to the present invention, the above-described problem is a circuit board using a film made of a thermoplastic polymer capable of forming an optically anisotropic molten phase as an insulating layer, and a mounted product is provided in the same circuit board. The dimensional change rate of at least one region having a plurality of regions where the mounting product is provided is different from (1) other parts of the circuit board, and (2) the mounting product mounted in the region. This can be solved by providing a circuit board that is adjusted by locally heat-treating the region so that the difference from the dimensional change rate is 0.1% or less.
[0007]
The inventors have so far conducted research on a film made of a thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer and a circuit board using the film. As a result, it has been found that the thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer film can control its thermal expansion coefficient by heat treatment. As a result of paying attention to such properties, after using a thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer film as an insulating layer of a circuit board and making a laminate with a metal foil, the region where the mounting product is provided is locally heat-treated, and in that region As a result of further finding out that it was possible to easily produce a circuit board meeting the above requirements by adjusting the dimensional change rate of the thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer film to a desired value, the present invention was completed.
[0008]
When mounting various mounted products on a circuit board, heating only the mounting part of the circuit board is, for example, disclosed in JP-A-10-335391, JP-A-2000-252327, JP-A-2001-68847. And JP-A-2001-111207 (Patent Documents 1 to 4). The local heat treatment described in these documents is performed in the process of the mounting process, and a circuit board provided with a region having a different thermal expansion coefficient corresponding to the mounted product is used in the mounting process. It is not intended to be manufactured in advance. Furthermore, the above-mentioned documents do not describe the material of the circuit board itself.
[0009]
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-157010 (Patent Document 5) is known regarding a circuit board using a thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer film. The purpose of this publication is to provide a metal-clad laminate according to the thermal expansion coefficient of a surface-mounted component with a small positional deviation due to thermal expansion when directly mounting an LSI chip. By heat-treating the laminate composed of the film and the metal foil before mounting the mounting component on the surface, the thermal expansion coefficient of the film constituting the laminate is made substantially the same as that of the mounting component. Disclosed is a heat treatment method for the laminate. However, the method described in this publication only discloses heating a laminate composed of a thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer film and a metal foil, and the coefficient of thermal expansion of the thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer film over the entire circuit board. Can be substantially the same as that of the mounted component, but cannot have regions of different coefficients of thermal expansion on the same surface of the circuit board.

The thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer used in the present invention has a melting point in the range of about 200 to about 400 ° C., particularly in the range of about 250 to about 350 ° C., in terms of heat resistance and processability. preferable.
[0022]
In the present invention, the thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer film constituting the insulating layer is obtained by extrusion molding of a thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer. Although any extrusion method is used for this purpose, the well-known T-die film forming method, laminate stretching method, inflation method and the like are industrially advantageous. In particular, in the laminate stretching method and the inflation method, stress is applied not only in the mechanical axis direction of the film (hereinafter abbreviated as MD direction) but also in the direction orthogonal thereto (hereinafter abbreviated as TD direction). Since a film having a balance between mechanical properties and thermal properties between the direction and the TD direction can be obtained, the film can be used more suitably.
[0023]
The thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer film preferably has a degree of molecular orientation SOR of 1.3 or less when morphological stability is required such that there is no warp during heating. In particular, a liquid crystal polymer film having an SOR of 1.3 or less has a good balance of mechanical and thermal properties between the MD direction and the TD direction, and the film has isotropic properties. For this reason, the circuit can be designed without being restricted by the direction of the film (vertical and horizontal directions), the degree of freedom in design is increased, and the utility is higher. Further, when used for a precise heat-radiating circuit board that needs to eliminate warping during heating, it is desirable that 0.9 ≦ SOR ≦ 1.03.
[0024]
Here, the molecular orientation degree SOR (Segment Orientation Ratio) refers to an index that gives the degree of molecular orientation, and is a value that takes into account the thickness of an object, unlike the conventional MOR (Molecular Orientation Ratio). A method for calculating the molecular orientation SOR will be described below.
First, in a known microwave molecular orientation measuring instrument, a thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer film is inserted into a microwave resonant waveguide so that the film surface is perpendicular to the traveling direction of the microwave, and the film is transmitted. The electric field strength (microwave transmission strength) of the microwave is measured. And based on this measured value, m value (it calls a refractive index) is computed by following Formula.
m = (Zo / Δz) × [1-νmax / νo]
Where Zo is the device constant, Δz is the average thickness of the object, νmax is the frequency that gives the maximum microwave transmission intensity when the microwave frequency is changed, and νo is the average thickness of zero (that is, the object is Is the frequency that gives the maximum microwave transmission intensity.
Next, when the rotation angle of the object with respect to the vibration direction of the microwave is 0 °, that is, the vibration direction of the microwave and the direction in which the molecules of the object are best oriented, the minimum microwave transmission intensity is given. m 0 to m value when the direction meets the m value when the rotation angle is 90 ° as m 90, orientation ratio SOR is calculated by m 0 / m 90.
[0025]
The thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer film of the present invention may be of any thickness and includes a plate or sheet of 1 mm or less, but preferably has a film thickness in the range of 10 to 150 μm. The thing whose thickness exists in the range of 15-75 micrometers is more preferable. When the film is too thin, the rigidity and strength of the film are reduced. Therefore, it is appropriate to stack films having a film thickness in the range of 10 to 150 μm to obtain an arbitrary thickness.

In the case where the metal layer covers the entire surface of the thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer film, a method of thermocompression bonding the above metal foil to the thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer film can also be employed. Although there is no restriction | limiting in particular as thickness of a metal layer, The inside of the range of 10-100 micrometers is preferable, and the inside of the range of 10-35 micrometers is more preferable.
